They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

 

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

International Data Transfers

External third-party service providers who may process personal data on our behalf may be based outside the UK or EEA so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the UK or EEA.

 

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK or EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that appropriate safeguards are implemented. For example, we will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data, where we have adopted standard contractual clauses approved for use in the UK and EEA to safeguard the data, or where a derogation applies (for example, if you have given consent to the transfer).

How long we store your Personal Data.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

 

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

 

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see the What are “Your Rights” over your Personal Data section above for further information.

 

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
